Im from Costa Rica but... It's very sad what those people are going throuht LIBYA: Is NATO killing those it’s supposed to protect? Russian foreign minister argues that due to foreign intervention, civilians are dying on both sides of the conflict..

"Libya has been bombed for more than three months now, and we see no end of this process,"

the people need freedom and peace.indeed. In my opinion it is not a good idea to copy other countries blindfold.just like Tunisia. did they overthrow the government completely?have they got the freedom?no,not at all.

NATO don't want protect anybody.European only think to oil.Gaddafi didn't accept European company and prefer china and Russia so NATO has come with force for keeping out Russia,china and Brazil from oil companies in lybia and give them to European company instead of them.

In Europe particulary in France since several years there had a high increasing of oil. It would seem than forecast from specialists are more and more confused and even all the governments and scientists don't know what is the real ressources.

Recently I heard from Jean-Marc Jancovici if in West we haven't the possibility to use electricity over a few months. They claim it will have millions victims during this period. As you know we depend from fossil energies mostly these one are used by countries developped.

I'd like to know if political parties in your country have already debated on it and if people seems concerned.

Paul Yarrow, a 42 year old man from South London seems to know where the TV cameras will be all the time and the TV networks are annoyed.

'Paul Yarrow — star of BBC1, ITV, Channel 4, Sky News and even the Qatar-based Al Jazeera network — has appeared on television more than 100 times this year. The only problem is that the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Sky News and Al Jazeera don’t want him to be there.

What they want is for their TV reporters to be left in peace. What they don’t want is Yarrow — a balding, fat man who often wears a wrinkled white sweater — popping up behind their star correspondents, distracting viewers from the Very Important News that they are trying to deliver.'

A Chinese boy was born with a double face, making it look like he is wearing a mask.

On May 17th, 2010, the mother Yi Xilian said with great agony in a local Hospital in Changsha, Hunan province, that her 1-year-and-2-month-old son Kang Kang is suffering from a congenital facial cleft, and his mouth is cracked up to his ears.

Mother Yi Xilian and her husband used to work together in an electronics factory in Huizhou, southern China's Guangdong province. However, since she was pregnant Yi quit her job to go home and wait for the birth.

On March 4th, 19 days before the estimated birth date, Yi gave birth to Kang Kang, who weighed 4.62 lbs.

"My family didn't allow me to see my son at the beginning, and I pleaded with my husband to let me have a look. Before they passed me the baby, they told me 'don't be sad, don't be sad', but when I saw my son, I collapsed," said a crying Yi.

Yi said during pregnancy she had three pregnancy checkups in Xiangxiang City Women and Children's Hospital, but doctors told her that the results were all normal.

Professor Wang Duquan of 163 Hospital said there are many possible reasons, like disease infection during embryo development, taking medications during pregnancy, and so on.

Professor Wang said it's the first such case he ever met. "It's different from a cleft lip or cleft palate; it's a facial cleft. Not only his face muscles are cleft, but the inside bones are cleft."

Professor Wang said judging from the current situation the boy is only suffering from the facial cleft, and his intelligence should be normal.

Mother Yi said during pregnancy she didn't take any medications except some abortion prevention agents prescribed by the doctors at Xiangxiang Women and Children's Hospital.

Yi said 20 days after the birth she took Kang Kang to visit a big hospital in Changsha, where doctors told her that the surgery would cost at least 300,000 to 400,000 Yuan. "We couldn't afford such a large amount, and the kid is already 1 year old and we couldn't wait any longer."

Professor Wang said Kang Kang at least needs to receive two surgeries.

The surgeries would sew up the clefts on the surface skin, the deep muscle, and then reconstruct the facial bones.

Professor Wang said they'll try their best to resume a normal look for the baby, but as they never met such case before, the results are unpredictable.

Google has decided to pull out of China and as of today, all traffic to google.cn and google.com (if you're in China) will be redirected to google.com.hk - where search results are unfiltered.

What does this mean for Android, Opensocial, Gmail and other Google services? Can Renren still benefit from running on Opensocial? Will Gmail be blocked? What will happen to Google partnerships with local companies? Will Android make it in China? Will China make clones of google services?

I'd like to hear from our Chinese friends in the community!! Write in Chinese if that works better for you!

Yeah,when I open the google seach,it is redirected to google.com.hk,and said"welcome to the new home in China"...after YOUTUBE is forbiddened,later facebook,now google chooses to leave..whats the matter?I know it is for some protections,our country has very large population,if not protected in a right way,will induce some social problems..why not both sides stand in each other's shoes to think about it?anyway it is still a little hard for me to accept this,will definitely bring many unconvinence to some people in our country.

big problems 'cause of many requests. Sometimes it's similar to hack-attack (: <br>the second reason is spam. The second place in the world both with Russia (The First is USA)<br><br>maybe cloud computing will help...

The winner of Miss Singapore World has been blasted for her lack of eloquence and tack. On 25 September, 2009, it was revealed that she had been convicted of credit card fraud in May, 2009, and was sentenced to two years' probation. She faced five charges of misappropriation, cheating using illegally obtained credit cards, and impersonating their users' identities prior to winning the title of Miss Singapore World 2009. After initially resisting calls to give up her crown, Ris Low voluntarily stepped down on 29 September, 2009.

After more than a week without a successor to fallen beauty queen Ris Low, pageant organiser ERM World Marketing has chosen second-runner up Ms Pilar Carmelita Arlando as the new Miss Singapore World 2009.

In a press release on Friday, ERM said it chose Ms Arlando, 20, over first runner-up Claire Lee because the latter had suffered an injury that did not allow her to stand for hours.

The decision came after weeks of controversy after Ms Low, 19, stepped down following a revelation she had been convicted of credit card fraud.

Ms Arlando, a hospitality diploma student, will represent Singapore at the Miss World finals in South Africa in December.

Many people liked, but are concerned about the money that is spent with all the preparation. Brazil is a country that needs many other things, as health, safety and education. Many politicians are corrupt and can benefit from the games.

A U.S. student on Tuesday killed a recidivist burglar with a samurai sword, slicing off his left hand and severely cutting his neck after he spotted the intruder in his garage, police said.

The undergraduate medical student at Baltimore's prestigious Johns Hopkins University was being questioned by police but he may not be charged if found to be acting in self-defense. Samurai swords are legal in the United States.

thanks

We will not go down

Of course we all must condemn,refuse,and denounce all these savage,and brutal deeds.but always remember that Allah's promise of victory will never be achieved until we become one cohesive body and not to forget the wholy Hadith"muslims are like one body of a person,if the eye is sore, the whole body aches and if the head aches the whole body aches ".

not only ur topic was very heart touching but also ur 3 suggestions were even good enough...... we all are MUSLIMS ALHMDULILAH......sooner or later were gonna defeat are enemies INSHALLAH bcz are enemies really just cant imagine who we are? are invoking power is enough for their doom thats why we are still alive,fighting and are not accepting are defeat..and will never even do so INSHALLAH..... the day here after is not far..and so such downfall of MUSLIMS and the worlds peace itself is the part of it....so we have to get through it..all we have to do is to trust only THE LORD OF THE WORLDS....and be honest to all the people...

Good job " white horse " .. the three suggestions are completely right ..only the sympathies and tears under the effect of these violent actions shows aren't enough .. we must do anything even it was small .. at least in front of "Allah" we considered did any thing not only emotional impression .. <br><br>Eg.Muslim

thank u so much Eg. Muslim. u are so right and we should do positive things not just see and reject these crimes by saying ,we have to do something. Allah with our families in all over the world and with us .Ameen.

The space agency unveiled detailed new images of galaxies far and near on September 9. It said the major upgrade to the telescope in May was a complete success.

This image of what appear to be butterfly wings were taken by the upgraded Hubble Telescope.

The areas that resemble wings are actually folds of gas reaching temperatures of more than 19,000 degrees Celsius. The gases are released by a dying star that was once five times the mass of the Earth's sun.

The Hubble Telescope's new and repaired cameras captured several images.

The telescope was upgraded by astronauts during a billion-dollar mission in May.

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden is a former astronaut who piloted the space shuttle that put Hubble in orbit 19 years ago.

"After almost 20 years of service, our view of the universe, and our place within it, will never be the same," Bolden said.

Pictures of galaxies and nebulas (clouds of gas and dust) are sharper than photos taken by Hubble before the upgrade.

"This is nature's telescope," scientist Dave Leckrone explains. "This is taking the power of Hubble and enhancing it tremendously with gravitational lensing so that we can actually study detailed structures and galaxies, that are incredibly far away."

Leckrone said since the repairs, there have not been any technical problems with Hubble. The first photos from the repaired telescope came in July, when it took pictures of Jupiter after an asteroid or comet struck the planet.

Research scientist Heidi Hammel called the improvements a major step for space research.

"With this new beginning for Hubble, we can now see more clearly, and understand more deeply the processes that create, and shape and drive change within our universe," she says.

NASA says the new instruments can complete observations in a fraction of the time that was needed with earlier generations of Hubble equipment.

US President Barack Obama has given a speech to American students broadcast live in classrooms. An 11-year old was asked to write about what she thought of the speech.

"I was sitting in my fifth period class when I saw President Obama come on the screen. As soon as we saw him the class started clapping. Not everyone, but almost everyone.

He started off smiling, which I think is the best way to start anything. I noticed that all eyes were glued to the screen and everyone was listening.

I liked it when he said: "Everyone has something they are good at." That is true. If it is math, art or sports - everyone has something they can do well.

He also talked about how you need an education to get a good job. I agree with him on that. When I grow up, I want to be a conservationist. To be a conservationist I have to be good at science and math. How do I get good at that? By working hard at school and getting a good education.

I liked the way he talked about previous generations and how our generation will affect the future.

When he concluded his speech we all clapped again, but this time it was louder. The few kids that had not clapped at the beginning were clapping.

Afterwards I talked to my friends. One of them thought that he was a bit too demanding in saying that you "had" to get an education and "had" to remain in school.

However, another friend appreciated that President Obama was directing this speech towards kids. I thought that he could have directed it even more towards kids. At times it seemed like a normal speech directed towards adults.

Overall, I think that it is great that the president of the United States wanted to talk to us. It shows that America depends on the young generation. He asked us how we would change the world.

At some point each of us will all answer that question. America believes in us and I'm not letting her down."

That is a nice way to give children selfconfidence, but remember none of speeches a president makes is by him, there are always a clever, and prof. writer behind any speech any president meke, at least in USA.<br>

The U.S. men's soccer team faces a crucial qualifying match against El Salvador Saturday night, as the Americans hold on to one of three guaranteed spots in next year's World Cup in South Africa. The Americans need a win to solidify their place in the final round of qualifying.

The United States is in third place in the North Central America and Caribbean group, tied with Honduras on 10 points but behind on goal differential. Mexico is fourth, just one point back while Costa Rica leads the six-team final round with 12 points.

The last time the U.S. men played El Salvador, they had to come back to tie the match 2-2 in El Salvador. Saturday's game is at Utah's Rio Tinto Stadium and the U.S. is expecting a partisan home crowd. U.S. Coach Bob Bradley said after Friday's practice that El Salvador is a tough opponent, both at home and on the road.

"It's a group of players that's been together, he said. "I think they are well coached and organized. We saw that even in a home game, you know that they had a real game plan of how they wanted to play us. And I think that's one of their strengths in every game and we would expect all of that."

U.S. forward Clint Dempsey says that he and his teammates can take nothing for granted - they want a win Saturday to solidify their chances of qualifying.

"It's always different playing home and away," he said. "It's two totally different games. So we are just trying to make the most of the games we have left. You know it's kind of our fate's in our own hands. We are trying to qualify for the World Cup, you know that's the main goal, so we are still in a good position and we know we need to get a result."

In other matches Saturday, Trinidad and Tobago visits Honduras and Costa Rica hosts Mexico. The top three finishers after the final round earn a berth to the World Cup and the fourth place finisher faces a playoff against South America's fifth place team.
